Full Wrist Push-Up

1. Starting Position:

   • Begin by kneeling on the floor with your knees hip-width apart.

   • Place your hands flat on the ground in front of you, shoulder-width apart. Your fingers should be pointing forward or slightly outward.

2. Body Alignment:

   • Straighten your legs behind you and lift your feet off the ground, balancing on your toes.

   • Your body should form a straight line from your head to your heels. Engage your core by tightening your abdominal muscles.

   • Keep your head neutral and look slightly ahead, not down.

3. Lowering Phase:

   • Inhale as you bend your elbows and lower your chest towards the floor.

   • Keep your elbows close to your body at about a 45-degree angle.

   • Lower yourself until your chest is just above the ground or as low as your range of motion allows.

4. Pushing Up:

   • Exhale as you push through your hands, extending your elbows to lift your body back to the starting position.

   • Ensure that your body remains in a straight line throughout the movement; avoid sagging hips or arching your back.

5. Repetition:

   • Repeat the lowering and pushing up movement for your desired number of repetitions. Beginners can start with 5-10 repetitions and gradually increase as they become stronger.

6. Cooldown:

   • After completing your sets, perform gentle stretches for your wrists, arms, and shoulders to help prevent stiffness.

Tips:

• If this is too challenging, you can modify the push-up by keeping your knees on the ground.

• Maintain consistent breathing and focus on form, rather than speed, to avoid injury.
